It raises an issue under Article 8 of the Convention. QUESTION tO THE PARTIES Has there been a breach of Article 8 of the Convention in the present case? In particular, did the courts carry out a proper assessment of the facts so as to strike a faire balance between the media’s freedom of expression and the applicants’ right to protection of their reputation (see, for instance, Petrenco v. Moldova , no. 20928/05, §§ 44-68, 30 March 2010)?   APPENDIX   No. Firstname LASTNAME Birth year Nationality Place of residence Representative 1 Mihai GHIMPU 1951 Moldovan,Romanian Chisinau T.
